Each and every Bastet Noir garment is produced to shoppers’ exact measurements using discarded natural-fiber materials. Specializing in dresses, suiting, and outerwear, the female-owned brand makes its pieces to order in North Macedonia, Europe, offering employment opportunities to women single parents and micro-entrepreneurs. Deadstock cupro, cotton, cashmere, linen, wool, and silk are its preferred fibers.

The long is allowed but with a rule No big white dresses : to be clear, princess style wedding dresses (or “Lady Diana” style) are not recommended. A more slender garment that slides along the body or is the couture version of a classic, such as a sheath dress or a midi model, is more suitable for the civil ceremony. This does not mean that we must give up the long: voluminous or fluffy skirts, trains of several meters and important fabrics (such as mikado) are to be discarded in favor of slipped silk, voile and lace. The tail is discreet and barely hinted at.

Zero-waste label Bastet Noir tailors each garment from dead stock materials that have been discarded by other fashion companies in their local community. Pieces are produced in North Macedonia by a community of single-parent, female artisans. The brand has recently set up The Women Fund, where seamstresses are provided financial relief due to the impact of the Pandemic.
